My next door neighbor in Havasu swears by far the best vinyl Upholstery cleaner is regular shaving cream. He is also the customer service manager for Advantage Boats. Anyone else ever try it.

Mr Cleans Magic Eraser is the shit and I'll bet I'm not the only one here that thinks so.:idea:

If Bob tells you it works! then it works! Try it, I did. My buddies son cleaned all the upholstry in my boat with shaving cream. As clean, or maybe cleaner than the day I got the boat! Tried to give the 14 year old kid $20.00 for his two hours of hard work, and the kid tells me "keep your money that's what friends do".

UHHH SUCKA

I also heard it was the Barbisal or the one in the green and blue striped can which I believe is the old skool stuff. I'm pulling out the boat this weekend to get it ready and gonna buy a can and try it out.

I had a dark purple boat before that spotted just seeing water. The only stuff I could clean the spots with was Vinegar. I always used white vinegar with distilled water 50/50. It cleans fantastic but then requires a new coat of wax cuz it takes that off too............so follow that with Magic34's Drywash N Gaurd spray wax..........two real easy steps to keep the shine alive.
.
The vin/h20 mix works great for household uses too........glass shower doors, kitchen, you name it.

Also, I've used ZEP formula 507(I think thats what it was) to clean interior. Took ballpoint ink of the vinyl 90%.
.
Got that at Home Depot

YEP. Go and spend all that $$ on scrub brush Simple green, 409, water with bleach(on white), What ever sauce, etc, and try it, but leave a one or two foot section then go buy a .99 cent Mr Cleans Magic Eraser.
I have and used them all, I was blown away on how good Mr,C. works.
Did a test on a golfcart with a white seat with a soft brush and S.G. 409, water with bleach, and a lot more. Mr C all the way.
Then use a good Protectant like B-Bling.
